Who Am I? (a poem that will hopefully be about my user name) |

Allysa was my name, when I was first born, into a family that was quite weird, with memories quite forlorn. My parents decided the spelling, was actually not right, and they changed it to Alyssa, which is who I am, but not quite. Part of me still clings to, those weeks when I was her, although the spelling got changed, not long after my birth. She is a part of me, and I am a part of her, and I don't know who I am, I guess I'll never be completely sure. I wish people would stop telling me that I can do anything I want to. I never thought that I couldn't. |

Ooh, an interesting look at your name. I love hearing about everyone's usernames. We all ask ourselves this question, and I hope you find the answer someday. Thanks for sharing. "Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel."-Machiavelli |

Yes, the S really must miss you. Good job, see how much easier it is to just have a nifty pen name? ~Allan Its rather handy being at the top of the food chain...you can sort things out and not get the blame for it. ~~Elizabeth Johnson (anonymousfemale) |

No matter how your name is spelled, it doesn't change the fact that you're this sweet young lady You are who you act to be and not how your name is spelled "So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, |

ahh, yes, thanks all! Especially Allan, who made me laugh, and Acire, who made me blush. Dopey, is there a story as to why you chose Dopey_Dope as your pen name? I'd like to know. I wish people would stop telling me that I can do anything I want to. I never thought that I couldn't. |
